How Genshin Impact Hangouts work
Hangouts in Genshin Impact are similar to visual novels. Players have various dialogue choices and actions to choose from that change the story, with each Hangout event having between five and 12 endings. There’s also a heart system that reflects the need to keep the character happy, but it’s really hard to fail this, so we’ll focus on decisions overall.
Once you’ve completed an ending, you can start the Hangout quest from different checkpoints. These are usually places where you can choose dialogue options to change the ending, just like in your favorite visual novel.
There are rewards available for every ending. Overall, fully completing a Hangout event will give you 60 Primogems, at least 10 Hero’s Wit, at least six of the first stage character ascension material for that character, at least six of the first stage talent level-up material for that character, and at least five pieces of their specialty dish. Plus, you’ll get 100 Adventure Rank EXP for each ending. Additionally, there are achievements that reward 20 Primogems for most of the Hangout events.
Unlocking Hangout quests in Genshin Impact
Hangouts all cost two keys, which you can claim after completing eight commission rewards. However, there are other requirements for each Hangout as well. No Hangouts are unlocked until you’re at least Adventure Rank 26.
The specific requirements for each character’s Hangout event will be listed below, along with the answer orders for each ending.
Every Genshin Impact Hangout available, their requirements, and answers
There are currently 18 Hangout events available in Genshin Impact. The bolded options in the endings below are the last decisions to achieve that ending—anything you say after that doesn’t matter, except for heart levels.
Keep in mind that there are often multiple pathways to get to the same ending. Each Hangout quest is broken into smaller quests, and they can sometimes cross over. These aren’t the only right answers, but they are a path that is guaranteed to get you all the endings.
